They are very very smart dogs and will play you like a fiddle if you let them.

I have to admit that I always thought Yorkies are just lapdogs happy to be carried around all day in a purse. And I won't tell you the actual nick name they have in Germany for a Yorkie....lol.
But, after getting one myself (okay, grand-ma had a little fling with a maltese) I have to say it was the best decision ever. I can only speak for Merlin, but he is the cutest, smartest and bravest (well, most of the time). He loves to cuddle, play, be outside but also, like us, likes to laze around. The cutest thing is when he tells my husband at night that it is time for bed (he sleeps in the living room).
